It's really bad and I thought so from the first time I saw it. At times I've found myself staring at it..hypnotized.. this is not an endorsement. PLZ change it!

I'm sure the poll results would've been completely different if there was a sample with a different banner like 'hey guys here is another idea how we can make the banner look modern and up to date, so do you think (and basically list the current options)' Now people dont have a base to compare and autovote for what they are used to.

Q: We are curious if you are going to drink our new beer, but we dont want to tell you what will it taste like. Will you buy it?

(X) No, Im drinking the same beer for ages, its defining for my personality, I dont give a fuck how bad it is, I wont drink smth else for nothing
( ) No, I'm drinking the same beer for ages now, I'm just used to it
( ) Yea sure, I'm drinking the same beer for ages, its kind of cool but I dont mind trying out smth new, despite the fact I have no idea how it will taste
( ) I wont drink it but pershaps someone else will
( ) fuck yea, its time for a change


I agree. Samples for a new banner + new poll please. The people who want the horses to stay don't know how incredibly good and hetero a new banner might look.

I love the horses, I wouldn't mind if the site got some graphical and layout upgrades, but the horses should still be part of the theme.

Looked at the OP's join date and am not surprised. The Horses are kickass and have been kickass ever since I joined. Get used to them.

Ive honestly only ever been to TL to look at starcraft related stuff so i dont know if the horses are related to something else on the site but it doesnt fit the whole starcraft thing.

It is very important to TL culture, and therefore shouldn't be lost, however look at compromise. A number of logos have evolved from the banner, a blue horse which very clearly marks the Team Liquid influence upon whatever follows. The banner's uniqueness is perfectly representative of the uniqueness of this community, and its commitment to excellence. However the spirit of a blue horse can be carried through growth, change, and development without losing what it stands for.

I've only been a member for a year now, lurked a couple years prior off and on, and I will admit it will be initially alien and disquieting to pull up TL every day and not see that banner greeting me, but no one will deny that the site, the community, and the game(s) we care about so much are going through changes, and we should embrace it and make the most of it. Change that banner that means far more than a thousand words to anyone who has spent time here? Ok, but only because I trust the TL team to replace it with something equally representative of what the current banner has become. Keep it blue, keep at least a single horse involved even if its no longer the central image, and create an addendum to the new member welcome post / rules which shows this banner and describes how it became representative of us. Its effect, so important being at the top of every page, yet so out of place, strange, but connected to such a strong site... its a weird mix which I feel truly gives newcomers a sense of this place being different, proud yet respectful, almost like it intimidates posters against posting stupid shit and TL devolving into just another unrefined internet community.

Can a new banner capture the spirit and tradition as well as separate TL from the rest of the world to newcomers at first glance? Sure, and we shouldn't fight evolution so long as it is an improvement, but I do not envy the tremendous task of creating / choosing a new one.

Apart from the horses (which should obviously stay, and it seems to me that the only people commenting against them have been newbies each and every one), the amount of people in this thread calling the site design ugly or bad is disturbing, do people have no regard for usability? Are people seriously so used to browsing all these flashy, overly busy, unintuitive monstrosities that are currently in style (so much so that bnet2 is exactly like that as well), that they prefer having that ordeal of having to click about 7 goddamn times to navigate to any distinct part of a site?

When I open TL, I have every single thing I could possibly want to browse within 1 click reach. The frontpage of TL is by far the best design of any site I've ever been to, edging over google because of having to juggle a whole different volume of stuff to fit on one screen.
I can't sing and I can't dance, but still I know how to clap my hands.
